Summer weekends in Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire
19 May 2016
Summer is the best time of year to explore a new destination. It’s true what they say, “the world is your oyster” so we really think you should come pay us a visit. Here’s why…
Whether you’re looking for a family break, a romantic getaway or an adventure packed weekend, we’re ready to accommodate!
Family Fun
Keep the kids entertained all weekend but most of all, enjoy an unforgettable weekend with all of the family.
Why not spend a day at one of our beautiful beaches? If you visit Aberdeen Beach you may even spot our urban dolphins playing in the Harbour! Visit Codonas, the outdoor & indoor funfair, then dine alfresco at one of our seafront cafes.
We have loads of castles, and many have large grounds which are perfect for a picnic. Follow our castle trail and find out more about our royal links and picture perfect castles!
If this doesn’t quite float your boat, we have, museums, parks, an aquarium, ice skating, an open air pool, a children’s theme park, land trains and loads more!
Romantic
Treat your loved one to a weekend here and we promise you won’t regret it.
We have many beautiful parks and gardens and even a beach for a romantic stroll. If you’re looking for something a bit more exhilarating, try a hot air balloon ride over Aberdeenshire!
In the evening you can enjoy one of the many West-end productions at His Majesty’s Theatre or enjoy a drink in one of our exclusive cocktail bars.
Hoping to impress your other half with a fine dining experience? We can help! We have many renowned restaurants serving our famous fresh seafood and we’re even considered a ‘foodies paradise’. Why not pull out all the stop and cook them a meal by yourself at Nick Nairn’s very own cook school?
Fun Weekend Away
Like the sound of a ‘lad’s only weekend’ or a ‘girly weekend away’… Aberdeen city centre is lined with pubs, bars and clubs for you to the dance the night away – you can even start your night in one of our karaoke bars!
There’s plenty to keep you busy during the day. From shopping to live music venues and whisky distilleries to golf courses, there’s no need to go anywhere else!
Adventure Weekend
Aberdeenshire is filled to the brim (literally) with outdoor adventure. Golf, skiing, snowboarding, cycling, a treetop assault course, hillwalking, paintballing and even helicopter trips – does this impress you yet?
No? If you want to stay in the city, no problem. We have indoor sports centres, Segway’s, surfing, rock climbing, a dry ski slope, golf, football, an aquatics centre and so much more!
